~Summer Vacation 2010: The Lemonade Pool~

(Note: I was horrible about taking pictures on our summer vacation this year.  Between Nick and I we took a TOTAL of 30 shots... which is really pathetic.  I wasn't great about writing things down, and well, even if I was I don't have the energy to creatively share every day of our grand adventures.  Lucky for me, my dear sister and her husband DID take some pictures so I have some proof we were there.  Due to my laziness there will be much of our trip left out, especially our time in Idaho where we had so much fun and no one took photos.  Sigh.  I cross my heart and promise to be better about taking pictures once I stop getting kicked in the ribs in a few weeks. Wink wink.)

Grandma's are wonderful! They let you do things that mom would never let you do at home.

Like turn the kiddie pool in the backyard into a lemonade pool!  

Did you know that lemon's cut in half and squeezed make wonderful bombs?  

When you stand at the top of the deck and chuck them at the pool they make fantastic splashes!  

You also get quite a reaction when you chuck them full force at your Uncle Robbie's head.  Luckily he's a good sport about things and helps you gather up all the lemons you threw that missed him. Hours and hours of fun can be had just collecting and throwing cut up lemons into the pool.   

And who makes all this fun and stickiness possible?  Grandma.  

Isn't she the coolest?  

My kids sure think so.
